What crystals are heart shaped? Your guide to Swarovski Hearts.

Let your heart shine

Every Valentine’s Day hearts become the motif of the moment but it is a incredibly beautiful shape to design with any time of the year. How many different heart shaped crystals do you know about? I’ve had a look see and decided to show you some of the different heart crystals available from Swarovski to help in your designs.

I used two sizes of heart shaped fancy stones to create this fabulous necklace.

Fancy stones

These no-hole crystals have matching settings and you can order either with or without holes and in a range of finishes and in ‘Breaking news’ Swarovski have just added round stone settings to their range!

Settings with holes allow the DIY designer to make fabulous crystal jewellery without using a soldering iron. You just sit the stone level in the setting and bend the lugs down with pliers.

Wiring jewellery, like this fabulous Bollywood style necklace, is one of my favourite techniques and one that you should be able to do too. In this necklace the cupchain is wrapped with wire and then attached to the floral centre piece. The heart fancy stones are wired into the cupchain to create the beautiful flowing shape.

Plenty of crystals to choose in a range of heart shapes too! My favourite are the sew-on stones, perfect for that quick, easy to wear bracelet using macramé or switchback braid.
